Heart of Business: SkyCube Blasting Off with Kickstarter

I still get excited every time I’m on an airplane with WIFI and I can tweet from the friendly skies. That wasn’t enough of a thrill for Tim DeBenedictis and his team. Nope. Inspired by attending a shuttle launch in 2011, they came up with a way that you can tweet from space. That’s not all! SkyCube, a satellite the size of a box of Kleenex will tweet, send pictures and bring the wonders of space to your fingertips.

We asked Tim how they managed to get SkyCube funded by Kickstarter, what they did to market it and what some people have wanted to tweet from space. I even shared what I would post … and a most excellent idea for their jingle. Listen along and get inspired to take your own business to infinity and beyond!
